From what I can tell -

Thoughts and prayers.

But thoughts and prayers aint cuttin the mustard no more.

Time for some sensible gun legislation.

I hate to say this, but I think one or two more of these mass shootings will be necessary to force Congress to act.

Momentum and demand for gun legislation is picking up steam, but I don’t think quite enough yet to make it happen.

A few dozen more human lives over the next year will probably need to be sacrificed to move the hearts of the obstinate.

Where you made your first false accusation of deflection. Only reason to do that is that you agree with and support the OP’s nonsense.

I made a legit accusation of deflection, PERIOD.
Your techinique used is called Tu Quoque (look it up, expand your self awareness).

Everything else is what you imagined, you can’t find any text to support your accusations.

It’s time for nuns and brothers to start running schools again.
 
Those folks are more charitable than laypeople, and the kids remember that for the rest of their lives.

I’ll never forget my guidance counselor… A Franciscan I believe. A very loveable man.
 
And I’ll never forget the sister who made a little girl wash her mouth with handsoap.

Since when are assault-style weapons such as the AR-15 outlawed?

What do you mean “assault-style”? It’s a semi-automatic rifle. One trigger pull= one bullet. Just because it looks like something Hollywood would put in a movie doesn’t put it in the same class as a Kalashnikov.

Rather they want to disarm law abiders and let the criminals arm up on the

black market. It makes no sense.

This shooter didn’t buy his gun on the black market. He bought it legally, because, even though he couldn’t buy a pack of cigarettes or a beer, he could buy a gun.

Does that make sense?
 
I completely disagree but thank you for acknowledging the reality of the legal situation instead of pretending those things are the same.
 
She is welcome to her opinion. However calling for civil disobedence may very well be illegal. So many liberals have little understanding of the Consitution, they believe the the law of feelgood, not the rule of law. Just like these children in florida. They think Trump is to blame for this shooting, yet they didn’t blame obama for all the shootings. The Constitution was written as a document expressing what the government can’t do. It was a document that limits the power of government. Over the past 75 years government at all levels has found ways around those limits to find ways to do things to the citizens. Claiming only they are capable of understanding what the citizens of this country need.
 
He was nineteen, wasn’t he? In Ohio, you can start buying tobacco products at 18. Is Florida different?

And of course he could buy the gun legally- I doubt the people selling him this stuff had read any of his facebook/instagram/whatever posts, and because the FBI was tipped off about his “unsavory” activities and did nothing, how could they have known? His background checks apparently showed nothing, and that’s an issue with the government not acting- the gun didn’t hide his activities from the dealers.
 
Problem is that no one calling for “sensible gun” legislation are willing to say what is sensible. I gave several suggestions as to what can be done to prevent school shooting. You just used the tired of phrase that all liberal use.
 
No problem, and a useful idea. What other things should we prevent teenage from buying? We don’t allow them to buy booze. Doesn’t stop them from getting drunk. We don’t allow them to buy smokes. Doesn’t stop them from smoking.

Let’s outlaw driving since it kills more folks than guns in this country.

Why start with guns when the elephant in the room is automobiles?

I’m all for mandatory bike riding/walking.

Got me there. I don’t actually know how old you have to be to buy smokes in Florida.

But I think a ban on teenagers buying guns wouldn’t be the end of the world.
 
Agreed. Very few liberals have understanding of the Constitution. Agreed.

Their relativistic personal opinions seems to override any desire to understand the society in which they live.

It stops a lot of them from getting drunk. It stops a lot of them from smoking.

But here you’re painting all “teens” (he was nineteen, but a legal adult) with one broad stroke. The majority of 19 year-olds don’t post pictures of themselves wearing body armor on instagram, then shoot up their old school a few weeks later. You’re taking the one that did do those things and saying he’s the rule- not the exception- when you propose a ban on people his age buying guns.

The simplest solution is to clean up the FBI. This guy was raising all the flags and they didn’t act.
